Am I missing something here ? I've been watching this since it was listed and figured I would try and buy it for a few bucks as a novelty item.

I know some folks collect fakes and some fakes are almost as old as the coin they're counterfeiting but that seems like a lot of $$$. (On the plus side, I spelled counterfeiting on the first try!)

Description aside, I think it's unethical to release this known fake into the hobby's mainstream, and I have told the seller so.

I believe I know where this coin shop is, although I've never visited it. It is not too far from me.
